Oh wow, earthquake hit the east coast and cracked the : Washington Monument.
When there is a earthquake the first thing I look at is the magnitude, if it is under 7, it probably doesn't do much harm.
Washington has a lot of memorials and the Washington Monument is quite unique...
I do not understand why the monument has to look like that. Perhaps it is a missile in disguise! (Ok, that's probably not the case)
Every American should know this about Washington: he was not the first American president! Sure, Washington was first president under the Constitution, but the Constitution was not the first document that runs the country.
Remember the Article of Confederation? Read about the forgotten presidents before Washington here.

oh, didn't even know about the guys before Washington. This is because most school don't teach history, jump from Columbus to Revolution War to Washington skipping over Articles of Confederation entirely.
The Articles of Confederation intends for very little central power (and big state power).
State power reached total collapse in the Civil War
